WORCESTER – A May Street man accused of stabbing his friend Thursday was arraigned in Central District Court Friday.

Yonairys Borrero, 25, of 20 May St., Apt. C, was arrested Thursday and charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (knife). Judge David B. Locke continued the case to Feb. 7, and ordered Mr. Borrero held on $1,000 cash bail.

Police said Mr. Borrero was identified as one of two men who fought inside Mr. Borrero's May Street apartment Thursday night. Shortly after the fight, the 32-year-old victim walked into Big Bob's Liquors at 501 Southbridge St. suffering from a single stab wound to the back and asked store employees to call 911.

He was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

He told police he was involved in a fight with Mr. Borrero, who was arrested soon afterward and taken into custody.
